Enter your Link URL address and click the "Insert" button to add. You can also check to have the link open in a new tab so that end-users aren't redirected off the form.

Q: Can Field Labels/Titles be Hyperlinked?

A: We currently do not have a way to Hyperlink Field Titles, however, we do have a workaround! Start by adding a Description Area field to the Form and insert your Text and Hyperlinked data. Next, add your desired field under the Description Area field on your Form and check off the option to "Hide label on form". This will appear as though the hyperlinked Description Area field is the Label/Title for the second field.
